GDB trace of crash

Was testing bug 115077 when I ran into this. Not reproducible with gtk3 or gen.

1. Open attachment 139166 [details] with kf5 UI
2. Tools - Mail Merge Wizard
3. Exchange database
4. The new dialog opens under the wizard, so close wizard
5. Pick a db (like bibliography) and click Define

Bibisect doesn't seem to be needed because this appeared in 7.2 and this feature was added with bug 139906, so assuming it crashed from the start with kf5.

I can reproduce, will take a look.

Screencast with gen VCL plugin

gen crashes just the same for me if I press the cancel button of the mail merge wizard first, s. attached screencast (but the "Exchange Database" appears in the foreground as expected, so one won't come to the idea of doing so that easily)

Thanks, with these, the problems are gone (dialog z-position and the crash).
